you should say thank you

Most women will have experienced catcalling at some point in their lives. The familiar dread of fear as you realise that someone's watching you. The dread as you wait for them to make a comment about your body, about the way you walk, about your features. For me, this happens on a daily. I wanted to address and confront the regularity and seriousness of this issue by illustrating through the use of delicate and intimate portraits of women, who have experienced street harassment/catcalling in public spaces, adjacent to the catcall quotes they have experienced firsthand along with location and time.
